SANDRA LEIGH/ S.L. THORNE

ABOUT ME

     I am an author, an artist and all around crafty person. I created Thornewood Studios as an outlet for some of that, to provide a showcase and market for selling my work.  Because I am all these things, and so ADHD that even my Muse is ADHD, I flit from one art-form to another. Like DaVinci, I have many interests. Some of them I even do well.

​

     I've told stories since I could talk, and played with various art mediums over the years. About the only thing I haven't dabbled in yet is oils and hard medium sculpture. I even sew,.


     My inspirations come from all around me, from a vivid fantasy life, and some of my art even stems from my RPG and LARP hobbies. (Ask me sometime about the character that started my Ta Moko Menagerie. Just make sure you actually have the time!)

​

     At the moment I have 9 published novels (plus 1 more coming out this year!). I write high fantasy, paranormal and magical realism. I have vampires, a fae series (the Gryphon's Rest which includes: Lady of the Mist, The Gloaming, and (eventually) Dance of Devils), pirates and mermaids, shapeshifters and magic users of several bents. I even have talking animals!

 

      Recently I have been making these neat little bunbows with my mother. I sell them at cons, and now here! Though the online store will understandably be closed during conventions and events, as I don't want to 'sell' something online that I just sold the last of at a con. What I have is what I have. Feel free to ask if I can get something, but I am ultimately limited by what I can get, fabric-wise.

SPICE LEVELS

      My spice level is fairly low (though higher on Mercy's Ransom), and when there is sex, the description is respectful, imaginative and without graphic or crude language. More often I'll initiate foreplay and fade to black unless it's the first instance in the book or otherwise significant. And if I follow through I focus more on the emotions of the event.
